KOSTAL-Group's Holger Hasselmann Discusses Future of Energy Management Through Bidirectional Charging Systems

Holger Hasselmann, a long-time employee of the KOSTAL-Group since 1989, currently oversees the development of bidirectional charging wall boxes at Compleo. His discussion centers on future energy management systems focusing on bidirectional charging capabilities. In this context, a wall box connects vehicles to both household and grid systems, facilitating various functionalities like vehicle-to-home (V2H) integration with photovoltaic inverters for smart home energy management. This setup involves standards such as ISO 1511820 for car connections and EE bus for interactions with household devices. Use cases include optimized tariff-based charging/discharging, emergency power supply solutions especially relevant in Germany's changing energy landscape, peak load shaving, fleet management in large parking spaces like airports, and network stabilization through local grid serviceability and provision of reactive power. Addressing system compatibility issues is crucial; many cars are expected to adhere to specified standards soon despite some proprietary exceptions from certain brands. The practical rollout focuses on affordable 11-kilowatt systems suitable for overnight home use without restrictions from electricity providers compared to more expensive 22-kilowatt alternatives. Publicly funded projects have driven their experience and ongoing developments within this domain.

Automatisierte Zusammenfassung durch AI Conver

This session will explore the future of electromobility with a focus on innovative applications of vehicle-to-home (V2H) and vehicle-to-load (V2L) technologies. Moderated by electrive, experts will discuss how battery electric vehicles will be used not only as a means of transportation, but also as mobile energy storage to power homes and manage loads. Attendees will learn how these technologies could revolutionize energy management at home and on the road by providing a flexible energy source that will help stabilize the power grid and increase energy efficiency. This session is designed for technology developers, energy consultants, decision makers in the energy and automotive industries and for homeowners interested in integrating e-vehicles into their domestic energy management.
